The Kanehide Bessaku are very good choices for butchers in professional settings. The blades are stiff with little to no flex and the handles retain traction even when wet or oily. The elastomer western is easily sanitized and very durable. The semi stainless steel has great durability, dulls toothy, and isn't a pain to sharpen.
